PROCEEDINGS IN COURT.
On Tuesday last, during the Session Of the
Court of Common Pleas, Mr.. Johnson intro
duced the above Resolutions which were eec-
onded by Mr.. Vim. Munro, who eloquently por-
trnycd the high character and pure lifo of Col.

do go heresfter.)
AT the conclusion of Mr.. Munros remarks,
Col. |. Il. McKissick, although quite unwcll,
rose, and addressing the Court, said:
Col. james II. Rion WAS no ordinary man;
we shall never behold his like nsain; and if he

A Tinker Worth Meeting.


The man who rambles roundabout New
York with his little pine box on his back
and a tinsmith'S furnace in his hand and
sings at every other step: ANY UNI
brellas, wash kettles or boilers to mend, -
Is familiar parsonage, but the dilapi-
dated specimen that blew into the police
bureau of The Mail and Express the other
day was rara avis. His entire kit of
, tools was little black pot about the size
of a tomato can and a fat brush about
half an inch wide.
''Ee hain't got no umbrellers nor over
coats or shoes We want done up, be ye?''
His question was so uncommon that
the writer was puzzled for a minute and
hesitated while the peripatetic tinker CON
tinued:
II kin take any old cotton umbreller
and make it er genuine waterproof war
ranted never to leak, rip, stick or tear
Eff ye are got a rubber coat I'll size er
over fer We en- a overshoe wOts worn I'll
make it good as new fer ye.
A set of rubber leggings was the only
article the writer could find about the
place, and passing them over to the tinker
he babe him ''siZe 'em over The opera
ton consisted in painting the leggings in
such places as where the rubber was
worn away or cracked, and it is only Just
to say that the work was well worth the
fifteen cents charged for it. The leggings
were really as good as new. The compo-
sition used in the work was dammar var
nish and asphaltum in about equal quaint
ties, to which little turpentine has been
added. The coating applied to rubber
goods restores their original appearance
and usefulness and, according to the
tinker, lis an excellent compound for to
cover spots wot gifts on gossamer coats

The Laws Delays and Abuses.

David Dudley Field is doing good ser
vice in his old age in protesting against
the laws delay" which now practically
amounts to a denial Of justice in our
sou. IS. He says the average length of
the suits which are sent up to the court of
appeals is five years. Matters are still
worse in the supreme court of the United
States. The whole aim of our court ma
chinery seems TO be to prolong litigation
and add to the eDoluments Of the legal
profession. Then, as Mr.. Field points out,
how shocking is the condition of our Grim
inal courts. There are 5000 untried cases
in the court Of general sessions in this
city, yet in any civilized state particular
care should be taken that prompt justice
should be administered TO petty criminals
who are brought before our police courts.

Why need you care, dear wife, or heed,
The passing of your early graceg
What though the lilies supersede
The springtime roses of your face?
What though fhe azure of your eyes
Has nnellowed to a softer blue?
The fairest tints that deck the skies
Are caught from twilght's fading hue.
Why should the ripened fruit regret
Its summer bloom, hOwe'er SO fair?
Why need you sigh, though Time should set
His crown of silver on your hair?
The sweetest fragrance of the rose
Is from its fading petals pressed.
And Nature spreads her earliest SHOWS
Above the flowers she loves the best.
What care we for the vaniBied years,
Save for the fruit their summers brought?
What care we for our fallen tears,
Save for the rainboWs on them wroughtf
Why should we mourn the joys we shared,
Or see them perish with regret,
Since on the fruit our hearts have Jared,
And memory keeps the rainbows yet?
What though our winter time has come,
And summers buds and blooms expiref
Love hath an ever radiant home,
And bids us welcome TO It's fire
He dwelt with us through all the spring;
We sheltered him from summers heat;
Now at his hearth well sit and sing,
And let the wintry tempest beat.
